great! your web browser does the exact same thing!

> 26 more potential permissions [1] from a browser are fine because a) it's just a single permission window and b) the browser exists in total vacuum from all other user experiences.

your argument is a non-sequitur; if I go install a firmware flasher, it is going to ask for permission to access the device I am flashing no matter what. on macos it will ask for "full disk access" for all your disks! on windows it will ask me "Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?" (what changes????). and then after that the app has to look at all of your devices and ask you which you want to use, and if there's a bug in the code, it might operate on the wrong one.

those OS permissions are confusing and obtuse, dare I say useless, and yet they still exist, and of course they cause fatigue!

whereas if you go to a webusb tool, the browser presents you a list of devices, with only the ones the app can use visible, and the app never gets more permission than it needs. it is simply a better UX and DX than the "permissions" cloud you're yelling at.

Native apps also have this, and it's worse because they usually just ask for sweeping admin access on windows, unlike WebUSB which just brings up a device selection menu

is this a good thing? to some extent sure but I feel like limitations and collaboration leads to better art in many instances

biggest mistake of my life

If we're going to reduce car noise, the only option is to make them go slower and move them away from residential areas.
